<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Ok, I had to run down (walk fast actually) to my local bookstore and pick up a copy. But you made one mistake, the mag has a DVD not CD but that's ok, there is lots more stuff for my money.

So if this is multiplayer only, who am I going to play against?

I could be persuaded to make a bit of time this weekend.

Edit: btw is Starsiege Tribes what you are calling Tribes 1? Tribes 2 is self evident.

Re: OT: Something I Haven\'t Done
 

I hate when I have trouble completing training missions. I'm stuck on the CTF training mission. those nasty turrets are making minced meat out of me. I have no idea how to destroy them, I've emptied some 15 disc rounds on a single turet (while it's shooting at me) and not so much as a dent.

if I approach at full speed (in light armor) I can get close to the flag, but I'm always cut down a few feet from the flag. How I'm supposed to get in AND out again looks like an impossible task.

I'm beginning to regret buying the CGW mag. Mind you I have only played it a bit so far, but traininging missions should not be impossible.

sorry for sounding off, but this sucks.

Chose a heavy with a motar and then go after them. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Also a scout is faster than the turret and if you can ski. (hit jump as you move down a hill then at the bottom hit jet pack, will send you way up or way out.) Look to www.tribalwar.com or www.planettribes.com for tips and pointers. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Also the bLaster at close range will take out a turret, but you have to be right up on it.
